This week on Echoes of Indiana Avenue we’ll explore the Indianapolis Recorder’s midnight Christmas benefit concerts at the Walker Theatre.
We’ll be featuring interviews with several Indianapolis musicians who performed at the Christmas benefit shows, including Henry Hinch, Josephine Cheatham Manns, Reggie Gammon, and the late Joe Trotter.
We’ll also talk with Eunice Trotter, the former owner of the Indianapolis Recorder, and the legendary Indianapolis disc jockey Geno Shelton. Trotter and Shelton organized the Christmas benefit show during the 1980s.
